GS/MS/JPM incoming analyst tests

I accepted an offer for FT in London at a top 3 BB (GS/MS/JPM).

I was told that, during training, incoming analysts are required to pass exams for the FSA. Could anyone shed some light, or point out where to get some info? (exactly which exams they are, what do they cover, etc)
